When doing common functionality for a switch, is there any way to optimize:switch(x) { case X: q.X = e; break; case Y: q.Y = e; break etc... } e is basically a value that, depending on the what kind(x), we assign it to a field in q. The name of the field and the case label are identical(in fact, it wouldn't hurt to do it either automatically(if x's enum name, if exists, matches a field, auto assign) or create the field in the class q automatically if the label matches a certain range or set). Basically the idea is to avoid duplicating a lot of code. I imagine one could write a string mixin that generates the cases and assignments but I'm hoping for a more elegant solution.
Sounds like opDispatch may be useful. Ali
